The other day heard story from a
sea CAPTAIN who has been all over the
world and finally settled Hear Atlanta,
the best place, lie says, he has ever
found. Among the seafaring men he
knew before the war was Il captain that
had been SLAYER. Once he had Il cargo
of 300 slaves, sailing with them from
/ OF the coast of Africa 10 Cuba. Alter a
few days sail he saw he was chased by
a United States man OF war. Ii he was
| caught with the slaves the penalty was
death for him and his crew, aud his
cargo was worth 5000 600. So he had
two incentives 10 get away, and made
his preparations for either eyent-escape
or capture. He hung the heavy iron
/ cable or chain that holds the anchor all
around the hull of his vessel, on the
outside, just below the edge of the deck.
1t was held by some cleats. These ca
bles are so heavy that mar can lit
only about two feet Of one. Then he
had the 800 naked negroes brought on
deck and each ones wrists crossed aud
tied fast. They were then placed along
the gunwales. fasiug outward and lean
ing over, and a strong cord fastened the
hands'of each one to this heavy iron
cable just below them on the outside.
Then the captain awaited the result
of the race. He had on every stitch Of
canvas his poles could carry. II he
could run till dark he hoped to dodge
the steamer and be ont of sight before
another day. But the sun did not go
down fast enough, and the steamer
came on too fast There was at last no
hope Of escape. The crew stood ready
with axes; the captain raised his hand,
and in an instant every cleat was
knocked loose. There was sudden
jerk, over went the negroes; there was
for an instant fringe of 600 black heels
in the air, and cable and negroes were
gone to the bottom. Commodore Maury
SAYS the pressure of water at great
depths Is such that fishes cannot go
there 10 devour and chemical decompo-
sition cannot take place. SO these
negroes are down there yet, still tied la
Il circle to that iron cable, with their
heads down aud heels up, in the eter-
nal stiffness of those depths.
As soon as the man OF war came up n
lieutenant boarded the SLAYER aud found
plenty signs Of negroes, but not singl"
slave. And the caprNin was not ar
rested. lie soon had another cargo Of
negroes, which he this time successfully
landed and sold in Cuba. On his return
to Boston, however, he and his mate
fell out, and the mate told on him. The
captain ran away to Cuba aud was not
prosecuted. After awhile his friends
succeeded in getting pardon for him
from the president, and he returned TO
Boston, where he now resides-wcalthy,
happy and respected. He told this
story to his old friend, who told it to
me. As for the poor negroes Jerked
over the gunwales suddenly headfore-
mos: into the water forever-wcll, they
were captured while trying TO capture

A pretty little romance has just
reached an Interesting elimination in
Rabun county, Georgia. At the base
of the Tiger Mountain, half mile of
the main road leading to Clayton, re
sides 4 sober old farmer named George
w. Dillard, who has IA wife and two
SONS. Early last summer Mr.. billiard
received letter from his wife's brother,
whom lie had not seen since 1916. At
that time James McCurrie was young
man, as was also George w. Dillard.
The news had reached Georgia OF the
wonderful gold discoveries In Califor-
mia. Among those who were full OF
this excitement were McCurric and
billiard. They bad perfected all ar
rangements for going thither, and were
bidding tie family goodby when billiard
faltered. The fearful eyes Of McCurrie's
young sister touched his heart, especi-
ally as she was weeping for him and
not for her brother. Throwing down
his bundle, he declared that lie would
stay If the girl would marry him. To
this she cheerfully agreed. so billiard
remained a Georgia farmer, while Nc
Currie jumped into the stage coach and
was borne away. Since that time he
has never been heard Of.
Ii was with mingled feelings, there
fore, that billiard read the letter from
this old comrade. McCurrie stated that
he had worked against adverse fortune,
declining 10 write 10 the folks at home
until he could strike IL rich, but every
year found him growing poorer, and
now, old, feeble and poor, his great wIsb
WAS TO look once more upon his native
hills. That he could not 10 so. unless
he was sent money enough upon which
to return. Mr.. billiard read the letter
to his wife and sens.
I'VE must send him the money" said
the old man. So a COW and a mule
were sacrificed and the money went on
its mission across the continent. Sew
eral weeks time brought another letter
in which the old man expressed his
graiefulnPss for the kindness done him,
but he was too i'll 10 undertake the
journey. After that no more was
heard from him.
On Monday Dillarl received letter
which rreiied ihat James McCurrie
wss dead; that he wished to test the
fidelity OF his sisters family; that their
prompt response TO his appeal had
moved him, aud that by his will his
property in California, valued at
q, 900, 900, was wiIled In equal parts to
his sister, her husband and their two
sons.
The two young men passed through
Atlanta Tuesday night en- route for Gail
fornia TO take possession az the property,
which they hope 10 shortly convert into
; cash, when they will return.
